pennymax Valued Member 71 Posts	Posted 10/27/2012 11:13 pm Decided to share some of my finds for the hanging variety. I have everyone from 1953 to 1964 with the exception of the 1960. Here are a couple of pictures: Report this Post to the Staff

noahs-numismatics Pillar of the Community Canada 3167 Posts	Posted 10/28/2012 10:18 am Cool! Nice coins! How does a die clash get in almost the same position for that many years in a row? Report this Post to the Staff
DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9865 Posts	Posted 10/28/2012 11:18 am The hanger is an image of the queen's chin and throat transfered to the reverse die when the dies strike each other with no blank in place.The same obverse was used from 1953-1964. "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Report this Post to the Staff

EY_Pep Valued Member Canada 123 Posts	Posted 10/29/2012 10:43 am Cool. I find pennies from the 60's often, should I be checking for these? Can you find these in circulation still? or are the very rare? Report this Post to the Staff

JeyRey2000 Pillar of the Community Canada 743 Posts	Posted 10/29/2012 12:34 pm Anyone ever see a hanging number from the George years! I could swear I have one at home. Will have to check! Might be a 53 though Report this Post to the Staff
mysterious_dr_x Valued Member Canada 284 Posts	Posted 10/29/2012 12:52 pm You won't see a hanging on a George VI coin, but die clashes do exist for those years as well. The marks are different since the design is. On a 1937-1952 coin, you tend to see the inside of his ear between the branch and the leaf,the top of his head under "1 cent" and his neck through the date. Some other marks can be visible, but are less common. @EY_Pep: Yes, you can find hangings in your change, they are especially common for the years 1962-1963. Report this Post to the Staff
